Danang International Fireworks Festival 2025 kicks off with exciting events

Marking the 50^th anniversary of Danang’s liberation, the festival symbolises a turning point, highlighting the city’s aspirations and determination in a new era. It reflects Danang’s vision for prosperous growth and its ongoing efforts to secure a prominent position on the global tourism map.

DIFF 2025 will be the longest and largest fireworks festival in the history of the event, featuring six nights of spectacular displays with the participation of 10 teams from Vietnam, Finland, the United Kingdom, Portugal, Poland, South Korea, Italy, Canada, and China.

The opening night of DIFF 2025 is set to take place on May 31, with a match between Vietnam 1 and Finland, themed "Cultural Essence". This will also be the first year two teams from Vietnam have competed at the DIFF.

Festival schedule

This year, DIFF promises not only impressive fireworks performances but also extraordinary experiences for visitors, blending art, music, sports, and cutting-edge technology. Each night will feature a live concert with popular domestic and international artists, combined with fireworks, music, and state-of-the-art technology, offering guests an experience that exceeds expectations.

Notably, augmented reality (AR) will be integrated into the Sun Paradise Land (SPL) app, allowing visitors to immerse themselves in a world of endless imagination and creativity alongside the Danang fireworks sky, creating a powerful ripple effect. Through these unique technological effects, this year’s fireworks experience promises to be elevated to a whole new level.

The event will take place at the same locations as DIFF 2024, including the Han River Port area (firework launch site) and the pavement along Tran Hung Dao Street (for artistic performances). Each night, teams will have 20 minutes to perform fireworks displays based on the agreed-upon theme.

Sharing her ideas for what promises to be a standout highlight of DIFF 2025, Cao Ngan Ha, head of marketing at Sun Group, said, “This year’s artistic format will be particularly young, vibrant, and trend-forward. We plan to partner with leading event organisers in Vietnam to bring large-scale music concerts that are beloved by audiences, along with collaborations with brands to host artistic events combined with the fireworks nights.”

Additionally, technology will play a key role in making DIFF 2025 truly memorable for audiences with VR fireworks displays lasting 30-60 seconds, combining visuals and music to extend the fireworks experience throughout the summer. Audiences will also have unique VR interactive experiences using the DIFF kit, creating a one-of-a-kind theme never seen before.

For young people, DIFF will be a fun space for pairing, where they can connect with other singles present in Danang through AR-based spatial experiences. Moreover, with the Sun Paradise Land app, audiences can hunt for early bird discounts, enjoy flash sales, or vote for their favourite team. A wide range of exciting technological experiences will complement the real-world experience, making DIFF 2025 a season of fireworks that’s both unforgettable and immersive.
